The Michigan Wolverines are coming into a daunting matchup with the Alabama Crimson Tide on New Year’s Day. They come in as underdogs against the Tide, and this game is going to boil down to the Wolverines slowing down Alabama’s dynamic wide receivers.
Michigan has struggled with great wideouts all season. Penn State’s K.J. Hamler had 6 receptions for 108 yards and 2 touchdowns. Ohio State had 313 receiving yards and 4 touchdowns against the Wolverines. But sadly, neither one of those groups of receivers are as good as what they will see out of the Crimson Tide in the Citrus Bowl.
